Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at support@drmarimarquez.com  if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Personal growth after loss is a meaningful journey centered on self-improvement, learning, and self-awareness, particularly in the context of dealing with grief. While the American Psychological Association (APA) does not provide a strict definition, it recognizes this journey as a transformative process that unfolds following the death of a loved one. According to Dr. Mari, this journey involves deliberate actions focused on fostering positive emotional and psychological changes. 


The Personal Growth After Loss Initiative is an 8-week self-paced program inspired by Dr. Mari's research. It is designed for individuals who have experienced the death of a loved one and are looking for effective strategies and guidance to nurture their personal growth and navigate their grief. With weekly check-ins from Dr. Mari, participants will find supportive concepts and education to help them better support themselves after their loss. This program is particularly suitable for those who are at least one year and up to four years post-loss, although individuals further along in their grief journey are also welcome to join.


The Growth After Loss Initiative Program is an 8-week journey designed to support individuals in navigating personal growth after experiencing the loss of a loved one. It provides a compassionate space where participants can explore both research-backed concepts and heartfelt strategies from those who have faced similar challenges.


The program consists of 7 modules, each focusing on different aspects of personal development and grief navigation. Every week, participants will engage in a weekly activity aimed at putting the concepts into practice and fostering personal growth. 


Additionally, the program features a personalized growth framework based on Dr. Mari's research, tailored to align with each participant's unique personality traits. Weekly check-ins with Dr. Mari offer continuous support, answering questions and addressing challenges, which helps keep participants motivated and accountable. The overarching goal of the program is to make meaningful progress, recognizing that growth is about practice rather than perfection.


The Growth After Loss Initiative Program is rooted in Dr. Mari's academic research, which explored how individuals who have experienced loss described their personal growth trajectories. Dr. Mari specifically focused on the experiences of women who had suffered the profound loss of a spouse or romantic partner. By analyzing the participants' accounts of what was helpful in their journeys toward developing individual strength, embracing new possibilities, and developing personal growth, Dr. Mari identified universal themes that can apply to survivors of various types of loss. Her findings also align with the concepts of post-traumatic growth, demonstrating how people can experience growth after a life-altering event, such as the death of a loved one.


In addition to the core research findings, Dr. Mari has expanded the initiative by incorporating aspects of personality traits to personalize the experience even further. Understanding how different personality traits influence coping mechanisms and responses to loss allows us to tailor support to each individual's needs. This multidimensional approach recognizes that each person's journey is unique, and by considering these traits, we can enhance the effectiveness of the program. This personalized support empowers survivors, helping them navigate their healing journey while fostering a deeper understanding of themselves and their capacity for growth after loss.


The Growth After Loss Initiative Program lasts for eight weeks. With giving you access to an additional week to catch if needed. 


The Growth After Loss Initiative Program is designed to be self-paced. However, there is an opportunity to work with Dr. Mari. At the time of purchase for the program, you will have the option to choose between self-paced learning only or self-paced learning with Dr. Mari available to answer your questions on a weekly basis, either through video or email.


The Growth After Loss Program provides support for people who have lost a loved one.
